Indian Agate Pendant

This pendant is a natural Indian Agate Stone wrapped with sterling silver half-round wire. When I wrap natural stones, I allow the stone to determine the wrapping. I try to compliment the stone with the style of wrapping that will allow the stone to shine and become a complete accent piece with the wire wrapping.

Chain Strands Bracelet

In this piece, I worked with chains to create a modern, contemporary look. I started by attaching round, square, and oval antique silver charms to a shiny silver chain, then repeated the steps creating four strands. I finished the bracelet with a toggle clasp.

Amazonite Necklace With Smoky Quartz And Pearls

This piece is made with antique brass, amazonite, smoky quartz and pearls. Blue and brown make a nice color combo, and amazonite and smoky quartz are two of my favorite gemstones, so I figured the two stones would look great in a necklace with a little bit of white thrown in somewhere. I took a […]

Bones Necklace

These necklaces consists of a metal pendant strung on leather cord with a flattened metal tube bead. The leather is long enough that you can either wear it as a long necklace, or wrap it around your neck another loop and wear it as a choker. The metal is oxidized in a way reminiscent of […]

Blue Crescent Necklace

Very simple and fun piece! I’ve used a tigertail wire base, with no clasps. Inexpensive materials include: blue ceramic disc beads in small and large, tiger eye beads, a dichroic glass pendant, and a few metallic seed beads! Make sure to make the initial strand very long! Good luck!

Chandelier Earrings in Black and Silver

The “chandelier” pieces in this design are actually elaborate bead caps taken from a Christmas tree ornament! I love to use findings in unusual and unexpected ways. When I found these sterling silver bead caps (at least that is what I think they are supposed to be) at a garage sale I picked them up […]

Blue Mother Of Pearls With Opals Necklace

My favorite summer vacation destination is Hawaii. I just love the color of Hawaiian ocean and that is what I tried to capture with this necklace. For calm ocean, I used different sizes of mother of pearl flat shape beads with round shape one. I used opal round beads, roundelles and bicones as well as […]

Hearts Of Silver Wire Bracelet

This silver bracelet and earring set is made of heart-shaped links sculpted from sterling silver 20 gauge wire interspersed with silver beads.

Ocean Drops Necklace

This necklace is made up of Swarovski crystal drop pendants in aquamarine, sapphire, and tanzanite. The pendants seem to float amongst the sterling silver liquid beads. This necklace is finished with a square shaped sterling silver toggle clasp. It was strung using .019 SoftFlex beading wire and is 19 1/2″ in length.

Bedrock Bracelet

Having bought a bundle of wonderful bright and somewhat crazy colored lamp work nuggets from blueseraphim (on Etsy), I decided that red coral chips and a bali silver toggle with red tigertail might be a great balance to show off the unusual shapes – I am very happy with the simplicity of the bracelet and […]

Autumn Flower Necklace

This necklace combines the colours of brass, cream and amethyst. For the chainmail part I used 8mm rings, putting some 6/0 seedbeads on them before closing them. On the bottom of the focal I worked with the seam measure rings. For the connection with the chain I kettled some Swarovski and other beads between the […]

Midnight Bloom Necklace

I love vintage style jewelry and wanted a necklace that would be perfect with a little black dress for an evening out. This beaded necklace was made using Swarovski Elements crystals, Miyuki seed beads and silver metal beads. The lacy filigree look of the beaded pendant gives the necklace a 3D effect.

Purple Jade and Turquoise Necklace With Carved Rose

The beads in this necklace are purple jade and turquoise. The pendant is a carved purple jade rose. It is 26 inches and finished with a sterling silver lobster claw clasp.

Brown And Cream Freshwater Pearl Necklace

My love for chocolate inspired this piece. I made it with brown, copper, and creamy pink colored freshwater pearls that I wrapped with 14kt gold filled wire. I decided the Y-drop was the perfect accent for it. I then finished it off with a 14kt gold filled lobster clasp and some medium sized 14kt gold […]

Rose Quartz Bracelet

This bracelet is made using rose quartz nuggets, 4mm Swarovski crystal bicones, and cultured freshwater pearls. This bracelet ends using a beautiful sterling silver toggle clasp. Bracelet is strung using .019 Soft-flex beading wire. Bracelet is 8″ in length.

Teal & Pink Looped Over Pendant

This set is made with hand crafted lampwork glass beads, some with pink swirls and some with raised floral patterns (even better in real life!). The rest of the lampwork beads are pink. There are also some silver coloured metal Bali-like spacer beads to finish. The seed beads used are clear teal. All mounted on […]

Mother Of Pearl Beaded Necklace

This three strand necklace is made from an old one that I bought when I traveled. I “recycled” the mother of pearl chips by combining them with some seed beads and this little necklace was born! I placed a unique hand made clay bead on the longest strand to give it some weight. The necklace […]

Guaracavusu Bracelet

This piece is made of natural, non-viable seeds from the Amazon, fresh water pearls, sterling silver charms, chain and findings. The seeds are attached with head pins to a thick chain to form this unique charm bracelet. Inspired by the Guarasavusu bird of the Amazon rainforest that has brown, yellow, and white feathers.

Garden Romance Necklace

I love anything dainty and feminine. The pinks, reds, ribbons and rose beads bring that out in this piece. This necklace is very simplistic in construction. I fed rose gold rope chain to through the porcelain beads and the center focal bead, which is faceted carnelian agate. To keep the beads in place, I used […]

Australian Outback Evening Sky

This necklace is a wonderful two strand necklace with a lobster claw clasp. One stand is 17″ and the other is 19″. I created a matching 3 strand bracelet and earrings to accompany this necklace. I used fire polished glass beads in the shapes of butterflies and circles with moon and stars, silver cast metal […]
